Chapter 56 So that's how it is.

Su Mobai, of course, had to shut up.

Some words, if you accept them, will lead to your death.

If I don't answer, I'll at worst be half-dead.

The three continued walking forward, the light from the side corridor streaming in through the high windows, illuminating the floor in sections. Not far ahead, He Xi's figure had already turned towards the archives room; her long, silver-white hair swayed gently in the light before quickly disappearing around the corner.

Su Mobai only glanced at it.

I really only glanced at it.

But Liang Bing seemed to have eyes in the back of her head; she slowed her pace and suddenly drawled out, "Oh~~"

Su Mobai's heart skipped a beat.

That "oh" is wrong.

That's not right.

Liang Bing turned her face, her eyes crinkling at the corners, and smiled sweetly, "I see."

Su Mobai remained expressionless. "What? I see?"

"So you didn't want to go to the archives." Liang Bing took a half-step closer to him, her voice low but loud enough for Keisha to hear. "You wanted to meet that female angel, right?"

Su Mobai paused in his steps.

It’s over.

Why is this little devil's sense of smell so sharp today?

Before he could speak, Liang Bing raised her hand and gently tapped his chest with her fingertips. "I knew it. Your eyes have been acting strange since this morning. You glanced at the female angel when she came in. You glanced at her again when the instructor called roll. After the assessment, when she walked towards the archives, you even tried to follow her."

With each word she spoke, Su Mobai's heart sank a little lower.

After she finished speaking, Su Mobai felt as if he were not standing in the academy corridor, but in the center of an execution ground.

Keisha is on the left.

On the right is ice cream.

Keisha did not speak.

She simply stopped and glanced at her.

His gaze was calm.

The calmness only made Su Mobai more panicked.

If Liang Bing is blatantly wielding a knife, holding it to his neck and brandishing it, then Keisha is like placing a knife on a table, not even touching it, yet you already know she could pick it up at any moment.

Su Mobai glanced at Liang Bing, then at Keisha.

Both of them were looking at him.

One of them was laughing as if they had discovered a new toy.

He was so quiet, it was as if he was waiting for him to confess.

That look... it's like looking at a dead person.

Su Mobai's lips twitched slightly, and he lowered his voice accordingly, "Um—let me explain."

Liang Bing's eyes shone even brighter.

"Listen," she said with a smile, "My sister will listen too."

Keisha said calmly, "Speak."

Su Mobai opened his mouth.

What did you say?

The system introduced me to He Xi?

Is He Xi very important for the future, and is an indispensable core technology when Keisha ascends the throne?

Did they mean I should act like a simp and pretend I liked her, while also trying to prevent her from getting close to Su Mali?

If he says that, he won't need to go to the archives today.

Go directly to the field.

Su Mobai coughed, trying to make his expression look more upright. "I just think she's unusual."

Liang Bing nodded slightly. "Yes, it's extraordinary."

Su Mobai immediately replied, "It's not the kind of unusual thing you're thinking of."

"Which one is it?"

"Observational level." Su Mobai held up one finger, as if discussing something very serious. "As you all saw, after she entered the classroom, she didn't go to Hua Ye first, nor did she form a circle like the others. She first looked at the environment, then the seats, then the people. This shows that she was gathering information."

Liang Bing blinked. "Continue."

Su Mobai pressed on, "There are too many people from Hua Ye's side at Wangxing Academy. Su Mary has already started contacting her. Although the He family doesn't have much political influence right now, their technical skills should be quite good. If someone like that gets taken in by Hua Ye, it might not be a good thing for us."

The smile on Liang Bing's face slowly faded by half an inch.

Of course she can understand.

Being able to understand doesn't mean you're willing to let him go.

"So?" Liang Bing looked at him. "You want to take the initiative to get to know her?"

Su Mobai nodded, "Yes."

Liang Bing crossed her arms. "For us?"

Su Mobai paused for a moment.

After deliberating for a long time, he finally said sincerely, "It's mainly for us."

Liang Bing raised an eyebrow. "Mainly?"

Su Mobai braced himself and said, "I also have a bit of my own curiosity."

Keisha looked at him. "What are you curious about?"

Su Mobai looked at Keisha and said, "I want to know if there are any truly capable people among the younger generation of Wang Xing."

After those words were spoken, the corridor fell silent for a moment.

People were going in and out of the archives room in the distance; footsteps came from the stone wall and then quickly dispersed.

Keisha did not speak immediately.

She looked at Su Mobai, as if trying to determine how much of what he said was true and how much was hidden.

Su Mobai was telling the truth.

It's just not complete.

Liang Bing suddenly chuckled, "Su Mobai, you're quite something now."

Su Mobai's heart tightened. "What could it be?"

"They would describe wanting to meet beautiful female angels as if they were planning for the future."

Su Mobai:

This woman is indeed not easy to fool.

Liang Bing took a step forward, her amber eyes fixed on him, and said softly, "You dare say you don't think she's beautiful?"

Su Mobai remained silent.

It can't be said that she's not pretty.

Saying that He Xi isn't pretty would be a sin against heaven.

It can be said to be beautiful.

Su Mobai glanced at Keisha.

Keisha's expression remained unchanged, only her gaze became slightly more indifferent.

It’s over.

Why is this question popping up again?

Su Mobai rubbed his temples. "She's beautiful, but that's not the point."

Liang Bing's smile grew even sweeter. "See, you admit it."

"No, I'm just stating the facts."

"Be honest?" Liang Bing reached out and grabbed his sleeve. "Then be honest with me too. Is she prettier, or am I?"

Su Mobai's vision went black.

coming.

A classic, potentially fatal question.

Keisha also looked over.

Although she didn't ask, the meaning was already very clear.

what about me?

Su Mobai felt that he shouldn't have come out of the registration hall in the first place.

This college is not a place you can attend.

"You two are beautiful," he said immediately. "She's a different kind of beauty."

Liang Bing sneered, "Not the same approach at all?"

Su Mobai was taken aback.

She's already learned how to answer questions quickly.

He chuckled dryly. "Isn't this the high-scoring answer I summarized from the questions you asked before?"

Liang Bing approached step by step, "So you actually use this to praise others?"

Su Mobai immediately took a half step back, "No, I haven't praised you yet."

Keisha finally spoke, "You want to praise me?"

Su Mobai froze.

The left side is blocked.

The right side is blocked.

There's also a data room up ahead.

The path we came from is behind us.

He felt like he had been cornered by two beautiful but dangerous angels, and with other students around, he couldn't appear too pathetic.

Su Mobai lowered his voice, "Sisters, this is the academy corridor."

Liang Bing laughed. "You still know this is a corridor?"

Keisha said calmly, "Then let's talk somewhere else."

Alarm bells rang in Su Mobai's mind.

Should we change locations?

Where to change it?

Before he could react, Liang Bing had already grabbed his right arm.

Keisha reached out and grasped his left wrist almost simultaneously.

Su Mobai looked down at his hands, which were being held by his left and right arms, and then looked up at the two people.

"No, what are you doing?"
